The Ankh - A Sacred Ancient Symbol of Egypt

I first learned about the Ankh symbol when I began my study and practice of the Sacred teachings in Khamitic Nubian Philosophy.  The reference book I used was Sacred Woman: A Guide to Healing the Feminine Mind, Body & Spirit by Queen Afua.  Now to make things a little clearer, I practice Christianity and I love Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit.  My dad raised my sisters and I in the church, with the basic non-denominational teachings of the bible and showed us how to utilize it in a way that I know that most other Christians have not yet experienced.  My dad did his work, studied his bible and taught his children how to move mountains with their faith.  For a long time it worked and was sufficient for me, until I moved out of his home.  Once I left my dads house, everything changed.  I had to stand on my own two feet.  My dad is a big believer that if you raise a child up in a certain way, they will never part from it.  So, no I did not part from my bible and I have no intention on it.  I began to dive deeper.  The deeper I went, the more confused I got about Christianity and what was going on in the church.  When I started to seek the truth and knowledge, I began to fall into the company of very spiritual people who were taught way more than I had known about the bible and they weren't even Christians.  I received my Ankh as a gift from someone I didn't know and since then I have been wearing it everyday.  But this post isn't about my journey, it's about the Ankh.  The real reason I had picked up the book in the book store was because I had opened it up and saw different exercises and diets and healing tonics...so I decided that, hey since I want to lose weight, get in shape, and be healthy, I might as well do it whole mind, body and spirit, the holistic way.  I had no idea what I was about to learn concerning being a woman and a black woman at that, let alone what it meant to truthfully be spiritual.  I am still on my journey and the more I learn, the more fun I have.  So now let's talk about the Ankh.
